EXT. STREET OUTSIDE A BAR. DAY.<br />
EUGENE, glassy-eyed, strides out of a bar, past camera and<br />
into the street. We hear a squeal of brakes and a sickening<br />
thud.<br />
INT. HOUSING PROJECT - APARTMENT. DAY.<br />
EUGENE awakens with a scream, bathed in sweat, arms bound to<br />
a bed - the only real piece of furniture in the room.<br />
VINCENT, sitting on a crate beside him, soaking a towel in a<br />
bowl of water, is taken <strong>by</strong> surprise. Eugene continues to<br />
scream and thrash, fighting against his bindings. Vincent<br />
stuffs the towel into Eugene's mouth and holds onto his arms.<br />
JEROME (VO)<br />
I confess, at first I wondered if<br />
I had rescued a man who was<br />
already dead.<br />
INT. HOUSING PROJECT - APARTMENT - BATHROOM. NIGHT.<br />
VINCENT holds EUGENE's head over the toilet bowl as he vomits<br />
violently. Eugene's paralysis and Vincent's broken legs make<br />
the operation doubly difficult.<br />
Finally Eugene has nothing left in his stomach to vomit. He<br />
drops to the floor in exhaustion. Vincent, also exhausted<br />
from the effort of holding Eugene over the bowl, joins him on<br />
the broken linoleum. Both men stare up at the ceiling that<br />
carries a map of the constellation.<br />
Vincent smiles.<br />
VINCENT<br />
You okay, Jerome?<br />
EUGENE<br />
(ironically referring<br />
to their mutual<br />
immobility)<br />
Yeah. You want to go dancing<br />
tonight?<br />
INT. HOUSING PROJECT - APARTMENT. NIGHT.<br />
EUGENE turns his nose up at the plate of boiled meat and<br />
potatoes that VINCENT puts in front of him. Vincent catches<br />
the look.<br />
VINCENT<br />
What's wrong with it?
